October 17

Kamieskroon – Springbok
46 Miles

Erik:
We woke up with some fog that made the day way easier and pretty enjoyable. It was stephs first time in a real fog, so she loved it. There was one point when we were going down the mountain and all we could do was stare at the sun peaking through and making the whole valley a lush green. Lots of downhills and the uphills weren't so bad. We found a nice Caravan Park in Springbok and have really friendly neighbors (Devon and Charne from Cape Town). Overall, a solid day!

Fog! 

Our Laundry drying. 
Looking back. This is the thick of Namaqualand, SA

Erik:

We decided we needed a rest day. We want to make it to the Namibian border tomorrow which is 70 miles from here, so we may as well chill out. There's a Meercat that keeps wandering into our camp. Steph calls him Timon. We took pictures like the tourists we are (I feel the fool after making fun of all the asians taking pictures of squirrels  . The landscape looks like Nevada. Maybe a bit greener, but the same kind of mountains. Rocky and filled with shrubs.


Timon!! With creepy red eyes.
